Labor frontbencher Kristina Keneally says the Novak Djokovic saga is a lose-lose for the federal government, as the fallout over his immigration detention and visa issue continues.
The opposition home affairs spokesperson says the rigmarole over the tennis star's visa comes down to a lack of planning by the government.
The World No.1 was freed from immigration detention on Monday after a Federal Circuit Court judge ruled a decision to cancel his visa last week be quashed.
Following the court decision, which the government says was 'on a procedural ground', Immigration Minister Alex Hawke is considering whether use his discretionary powers to cancel Djokovic's visa.
